World's First Virtual Jewellery Try On App By CaratLane

Last week I was invited over to the CaratLane's launch of the world's first virtual jewellery try-on app. If you follow me on Instagram I am sure you saw the live feed with a few posts from the event (loads of jewellery pics at the end of this post!)

The CaratLane App features some cutting edge facial recognition technology and 3D imaging techniques that provide you a life-like try-on experience.

A fellow blogger Shruti volunteered to try out the app as we watched to see the really cool features of the app.  All you have to do is get under a good lighting condition and the app will talk to you telling you how to go about using the try on feature. You first centre your face in a given area, then it will ask you to slowly turn your head, first to the left and then to the right while it images your face and ears.

How To Dazzle On Your Wedding Day With Jewelry by Minawala

This time spells out the wedding season for a lot of people - the stars are in perfect harmony to bless you with a happy married life so they say. Two of my blogger friends are getting married - one is getting married this week and the other is getting married the week after (I've never met one of them in person but it just seems like we know each other since a long time - that is what blogging brings you - friends from across the globe!) Well since both of them are getting married soon I thought it was the perfect time to show you some stunning pieces from Minawala jewelers - whether you are the bride-to-be, the mother, sister, bhabhi, or the groom looking for the perfect piece for his would-be-wife - Minawala has some exquisite pieces for you to pick from.

First a little about the brand - Minawala is a jewellery label, founded by Shehzad Zaveri and they have recently introduced a bridal capsule collection that’s filled with gorgeous necklaces, bracelets, earrings and more. The collection pays homage to the myriad cultures of India. 

The collection is a good fusion of modern and contemporary designs set in age old kundan and polki as well as a handful of tried and true favorites. 

Here I am sharing a few of the pieces that really stood out. First lets take a look at the necklaces. Whether you are wearing the traditional lehnga or a modern gown you will surely find a piece that works perfectly with your wedding attire.

Whether you are looking for pearls, colored stones or the classy diamonds, you will find something to your liking in the wide array of necklaces in the wedding collection.

Top 5 Black Items On My #WhatTheBlack Wishlist

Black evokes a lot of thoughts and holds a different meaning for different people. While Kareena Kapoor as Poo confirmed that black makes her look thin, guys look handsome in their black tuxedos.

For me black speaks to me of the dark night sky that makes the stars look pretty. Black is the colour whose absence defines white.

Black for me is the color of luxury. And here I present my wishlist for #WhatTheBlack activity.
I am not too materialistic but black evokes this sense of need for the best in terms of luxury so here goes:

1. An all-black Rado

2. Black Rolls Royce Phantom

3. Black diamond studded ring

4. A black Sabyasachi lehnga

5. Black Hermes Bag

Now a little bit about why the above five make it to my #WhatTheBlack wishlist. All of these are synonymous with classic beauties in their own realm. If I am choosing black to be a part of my life then I surely deserve the best!

And for the poet in me here is an ode to black.
Black - you are serene
Calm yet dark,
A little suspicious,
But always supreme.
The sensuous desire,
A mark of luxury,
Black - you are the king!

Now I tag you all to share what is your Black wishlist?
